Drink

More bubbles, I want to feel like I'm getting punched in the throat every time I take a sip.

Ugly is very good! Every flavor I've tried has been delicious, and it's now pretty widely available in my neighborhood.

I wish that the limited edition were found in stores more frequently but I don't hate shopping online for them.

It's a bad day if you see me without my Ugly water.

This is my favorite brand! I thought I hated sparkling water for very long, primarily because I hated the taste of other brands. I tried Ugly on a whim and fell in love immediately. All of the flavors are amazing, my favorite being cherry and peach. 

If you order from their website, you'll also find crazy, limited-edition flavors such as peppermint (yum!) and strawberry cream soda.

I would like to see more of a variety pack so I can try more without committing to a full 24 packs. 

I am an avid seltzer drinker and absolutely love the Dr Ugly flavour. Taste like Dr pepper without that bitey sugar taste. 

All the flavors pack more of a punch than any other sparkling water brand I’ve tried. 

I am not the biggest fan of fizzy drinks so I was a little sceptical as to whether I would like this drink.

I'll set the scene, the day I bought my first ugly drink it was about 25 degrees (unheard of in the UK), I was in my car, which had terrible air-con and I had stopped to get petrol at Sainsburys.

In a rush to pay, I grabbed the first best-looking sugar-free can of drink  (my intention was to rub the can on my forehead). Anyway, turns out I grabbed a can of Ugly, (the lemon and lime flavour) and it was great!

I would highly recommend it for anyone who can't bear the fuzziness of fizzy drinks or for someone who wants to quit drinking fizzy drinks - this is a great in-between product!

The Ugly Truth:  Ugly Drinks is the best sparkling water on the market

You might be wondering why?

Is it the eye-catching branding that the aluminum can so stylishly sports?  It could be, but that's not it

Is it the taste?  Perhaps.  Their peach flavor in particular is like biting into a ripe summer's harvest.

For me though, it's the bubbles.  As a bubble connoisseur, I have tested and closely examined dozens of sparkling water brands for the size, mouthfeel, and pop of their carbonation.  Ugly is the bubble king -- and if that's your thing, it's time to get Ugly

PS their Energy line is also solid

A tad on the pricey side, branding is very love or hate.

Great flavour range + relatively easy to get your hands on! Stocked in my local supermarket.

Discovered Ugly on whim in a bodega in NYC and I'm glad I did! The name is hilarious, the mission is awesome and the taste is fabulous! One of the best sparkling waters I have ever tried. Can't get enough! I even find myself ordering them online. 

I love sparkling water so Ugly is one of my favourite brands, love the taste and all the flavours they offer now is great.

My go to summer drink, so refreshing and very affordable. Its the perfect alternative to fizzy sugar drinks.

One of the best seltzer brands out there! Of course they have your normal flavors - lime, cherry, peach, etc. But, they also have limited edition drops some of which become permanent flavors! They've released flavors like marshmallow, Dr Ugly (like Dr Pepper), Root Beer, Strawberry Cream soda, and Blue Raspberry. They also have great natural energy drinks.

Tastes good, decent price, can't complain.

I had it a few years ago and I don't have anything memorable of why I'd buy over any other seltzer

I keep trying other store brands to find a replacement for Ugly that's cheaper, but honestly I also keep coming back. Their drinks are simply superior. Rooting for them!

I'm usually not the biggest fan of seltzers due to the lack of flavor, but these are really good! I love the variety of flavors and simple ingredients. Super refreshing and great to have on hand when I'm craving soda. 

RIP to the GOAT.

Ugly is the ultimate flavored sparkling water. Dr. Ugly was the best ever. Fruit punch and cherry cola were also delicious. I've been holding onto my last cans of Ugly for a special occasion.

I first tried Ugly's original SKU line - cherry, lemon lime, peach and fell in love. However, since they started with the limited edition drops and launched in CVS, my love has only grown stronger. I am more than obsessed with the Dr. Ugly - I wouldn't know the difference if I closed my eyes. 

I can't wait to see what else they do. They are the will Wonka of seltzer.

Please bring this back. Honestly the best flavored sparkling water I've ever tried. I would probably cry happy tears if I found another case of Dr. Ugly or Fruit Punch out in the wild.

Who knows the score. I guess whatever it was it could have been better

RIP Ugly. A great brand and a trailblazer in its category.

Flavors are great and I always find myself buying limited edition drops (I recommend the strawberry cream soda).
